## Resource

I’m surely not your run-of-the-mill expert on the frontiers of artificial intelligence. I have some sense of models, agents, and bots. And I think I understand concerns that rogue AI agents can break free of their human instructions, or what the industry sometimes calls quote “misalignment.” Yes, humans need to be able to keep control of the machines. But I also know something about election year ruses, including political hoaxes, such as we’ve seen in the past. With Taylor Budowich, Newt Gingrich, Art Laffer, Steve Moore, Ben Shapiro and Aaron Cohen.  Learn more about your ad choices. Visit podcastchoices.com/adchoices
